Clouds

Winter clouds drift like arctic floes On an atmospheric river; wind herding, prodding them onward to a repetitive future. The clouds always enthralled my mind. Their aesthetic varying shapes captured my imagination. As a child I would gaze at them; letting their shapes form images in my mind others couldn’t see. I still watch them as an adult change into phantom images shown above by the first four lines.
